Julian has suggested a cleaner way but I considered that to be to late and intrusive for 8.x; this way we will have enough time for 9.x to convert this io per AF/domain handler routines. Note: I will garbage collect a lot of opt_route.h dependencies by the end of the week as that option no longer has to be visible to most of the tree. PS: I cannot spell 'routing' correctly usually so whoever touches UPDATING next please fix the spelling;-) -- Bjoern A. Zeeb The greatest risk is not taking one.
